World Geography B - Semester 2 (Credit: 0.50)

Geography is the study of where things are in the world. It is important to know why people settled where they did: sometimes this is for weather-related reasons, and sometimes it’s because of bountiful natural resources nearby. In this course, you will learn about these special features which drive economic development and form the locales where people settle. By the end of this course, you will be able to analyze the human and physical geographies of the following regions:  Europe  Asia  Africa  Australia and New Zealand
